LHC glitch maps are fixed?

I spent a while watching a map, spawn didn't go over 4 until there were 5 people in the channel.

With 1-4 characters in the map, it regulates back to 4 as soon as the extras die.

Which sucks if you can't find a party, or are at a level where the only mobs you can party at are Crockies, and they're full.

Or don't have 6 accounts with 110+ chars, and 6 computers... etc.
